How to force yourself to study

Pro-tip to force yourself to study, do HW, or work on projects: Study on campus. Seriously, get your laptop, books, notes, calculator and walk/ drive/ bike to campus.

The reason for the is quite simple: studying on campus associates the place you have lectures and take tests. This helps your brain make connections faster.

And even better: you will never get distracted. When you’re home you have all these distractions just waiting for you, making it hard for you to concentrate. When you are on campus, you have groups of other students studying, which gets you into the mental “study zone”. For even better results, don’t use headphones, but just get immersed in the “ambient study noise.” It’s something like the students are telepathically encouraging you to study.

And finally, it makes it hard to quit studying. To quit studying (or even take a “longer” study break) you need to leave campus and go back home, which takes time. This encourages you to stay and study until the end. (Obviously you can take short study breaks and do things like take a stroll around campus of something like that. In fact I encourage it.)

And just to prove that it works, I’m on campus every day of the week from 8am to 9pm and I always get all my work done. Yep, I’m the guy constantly in the 24-hour lounge with my laptop studying and doing HW. And it works.

getting the hang of hiragana and katakana. everything makes SO much more sense now (excuse my terrible japanese handwriting, i’m practising to make all the characters look more even and correct!). now learning how to write simple greetings and phrases that i’ve picked up over the years, but never knew how to put on paper. it’s all coming together!

Tumblr mobile hates me so much. I literally posted this last night, or at least I thought I did but really Tumblr deleted it because why not.

Anyway! I finally finished “Save the Cat” :) I’m definitely going to buy my own copy of this book (one of my professors lent it to me to read over the summer).
